PROTEIN

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	an extracytoplasmic carbohydrate recognition domain homologous with C type lectin superfamily member, like Ly-49
	one C-type lectin-like domain in the extracellular region responsible for the ligand recognition, that bound directly to CLEC2D

mono polymer

homomer , dimer

HOMOLOGY

Homologene

FAMILY	natural killer cell lectin-like receptor family
	subfamily B

CATEGORY

antigen , receptor

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	plasma membrane
text	type II integral membrane protein

basic FUNCTION	triggering cellular activation of NK cells and target lysis
	its signaling in NK cells involves the activation of acid sphingomyelinase
	role for CLEC2D/KLRB1 in modulating immune responses to pathogens
